The balance of the bond is to remain at the Bond Centre.

Reasons

Both parties attended the hearing, conducted via video conference with the tenant joined by telephone. 5524533 2

The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy for abandonment, rent arrears and refund of the bond.

Should the tenancy be terminated?

The Tribunal may terminate the tenancy where the premises have been abandoned and rent is in arrear at the hearing date. See section 61 Residential Tenancies Act 1986. A tenancy is abandoned where the tenant leaves the premises without reasonable excuse, not intending to return or to meet their obligations, and fails to notify the landlord.

The tenant explained his circumstances. I do not consider this gives rise to a determination of abandonment given the level of compulsion in his exit and continuing restriction on occupancy.

It is somewhat moot as the tenant agreed the tenancy should end immediately, effectively surrendering the tenancy as at today.

Even if wrong, the rent is more than 21 days in arrears and termination via s 55 RTA was available.

A healthy discussion between the agent and tenant ensued on the next steps and the parties are encouraged to continue in the same manner as possession returns to the landlord.

How much does the tenant owe?

The landlord provided rent records which prove the amount owing at the end of the tenancy. Filing fee

Because Rodney Property Management Limited As Agent For Kelly & Nicholas Hopkins has wholly succeeded with the claim I must reimburse the filing fee.
